The  Asheville Classical Guitar Society (ACGS) was formed to

• provide a  forum for local guitar students, enthusiasts and professionals

• to encourage and promote performance and study of the classical guitar

• to produce public concerts by outstanding professionals, and, where possible, master classes

• advance public awareness of classical guitar music

The organization has enjoyed the benefit of leadership from a core of professional musicians, students and enthusiasts, along with its officers to guide program development, create events and draw new audience.
